" "The Police got great credit and praise in the papers for arresting the mother of 12 children one an infant on her breast and those two quiet hard working innocent men who would not know the difference a revolver and a saucepan handle and kept them six months awaiting trial and then convicted them on the evidence of the meanest article that ever the sun shone on it.

About Ned Kelly
Edward "Ned" Kelly (c. January 1855 - 11 November 1880) was Australian bushranger and outlaw who robbed banks and killed three policemen. He and his gang members are noted for wearing suits of bulletproof amour during a shootout with the police. In 1880, after trying and failing to wreck a police train and kill those onboard, he was captured and hanged at the Melbourne Gaol. One of Australia's best known historical figures, Kelly is championed by some as a folk hero and reviled by others as a bloodthirsty murderer.

Additional quotes by Ned Kelly
[Fitzpatrick] seems a strapping and genteel looking young man, and more fit to be a starcher to laundress than a trooper, but to a keen observer he has the wrong appearance to have anything like a clear conscience or a manly heart. The deceit is plain lit to be seen in the white cabbage-hearted looking face.
